Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has questioned whether Jurgen Klopp is getting too easy a ride.

After beating Arsenal 4-3 on the opening day of the Premier League season, the Reds lost 2-0 away to Burnley on Saturday.

“Am I allowed to criticise Jurgen? Is anyone?" Collymore wrote for BoyleSports.

“Or is the cult of manager so strong at certain clubs that we all have to blindly wait for Liverpool to show the consistency under a highly-paid, long-contract manager?

“I want Liverpool to do well, and I get very excited when gegenpressing works, but let's be honest, in the Bundesliga or La Liga it's in a league where you can roll over teams by just working hard.

“This is the Premier League, every team does that as a given.

“Patience is fine and I'm an advocate of a proper well thought plan but in all honesty, Plan B. What is it?"
